I own nothing from The Suite Life of Zack and Cody.
"Thanks for that Mr. Moesby" Zack said as the two of them got back into the car and headed toward the hospital.
"Please Zack, you know to call me Marion, and it's the least I could do. I simply cannot believe what Mrs. Fitzpatrick is doing, I will try to speak to her when we get to the hospital and try to talk some sense into her.
"Thank you, but I don't think it will help, I don't even think I want it to, I don't want to make any decisions about Maddie, I don't see her as my wife, but I want to be able to see her, and I don't want her to blame me" Zack was sad as he spoke, Moesby also noticed he was obviously nervous about what was going to happen.
"You just need to worry about helping Cody get healthy again, that's all you ever need to do Zack" Moesby felt a sense of duty to Zack, even though he had been the Bain of his existence for so long, he felt that he had a duty to try and help Zack, they had grown close since London's passing.
"It's not all, I don't know how I'll go on if Maddie dies" Zack sadly continued
"Let's not think of such things, we should focus on the good" Moesby tried to smile and seem happy as he spoke, but he couldn't deny the hopelessness of the situation.
"I can't help but think" Zack sadly replied.
"Indeed Zack, indeed" Moesby quietly responded.
Not long after the conclusion of the sad conversation Zack and Moesby arrived back at New York General Hospital Intensive Care Unit. Both were relieved that they did not encounter any Fitzpatrick's on their way into Cody's room.
"Oh, Hi Zack" Cody said as they entered the room, it was obvious that some tension remained in the air, Cody was glad to see Zack but his paranoia remained that Zack blamed him. Everyone else in the room greeted Zack and Moesby before the three adults decided to get some lunch, Carey and Kurt didn't want to leave Cody, but they thought it best to leave and diffuse some tension which had built up since the last of frequent doctors visits.
"So man, they've taken out the big machine?" Zack asked curiously, trying to keep his mind off Maddie
"Yes, the dialysis machine, that was cleaning my blood" Cody couldn't resist being technically correct.
"Is it out forever?" Zack asked
"No, they are testing to see if my Kidneys are working at all, they took it out about a half hour ago, they should be back soon to look and see what's going on."
"How do you feel?" Zack asked
"About the same, I'm really sore, you know what all the hospital stuff does though, the drugs help" Cody replied, smiling weakly
"Yeah" Zack chuckled hollowly, "Don't get addicted; we don't need you on drugs and alcohol!" He exclaimed.
"Alcohol which you got me onto" Cody quipped back
"I didn't make you drink it before you got in the car with Maddie though!" Zack hit back with sharply, the conversation was becoming less and less fun by the second.
"Maddie was drunker than me! She said it was alright, we were having fun, none of this was supposed to happen, we were just supposed to go out and eat" Cody was getting defensive now "You blame me, don't you" Cody continued, desperately searching Zack's face for some sign that he was wrong
"No, Cody, I don't blame you" Zack replied quietly, a part of Cody wanted to believe Zack, but he was so set on his idea that Zack blamed him it would have been impossible to see if Zack was telling the truth or not
"C'mon Cody, let's talk about something nice. I think Mom and Moesby might have got together last night" Zack said, looking rather neutral about the situation, far more so than he would have a year previous.
"Seriously Zack" Cody snorted obviously dismissive of Zack's claim "What planet are you on?" Cody then laughed.
"This morning, when I got out of the shower in our room I went into the kitchen to have breakfast with them and before they noticed I was there they were holding hands"
"OOOOHHH Shocking! They were holding hands!" Cody cut in sarcastically
"If you weren't in that bed already I swear I'd put you in hospital" Zack shot back "it wasn't just the hand holding, it was the way they were looking across the table at each other, like something had happened" Zack continued
"Really? I don't know how I feel about that" Cody said, trailing off toward the end
"Urrrrghhhh" Cody suddenly moaned loudly grabbing his stomach.
"Cody, what's wrong" Zack said shocked and concerned
"It hurts" Cody wailed and screamed
Zack ran out of the room and yelled out loud "Doctor! Nurse! Help Help!" He yelled frantically as Cody writhed and moaned in pain as doctors and nurses came running as the monitors connected to Cody began to beep and whistle loudly as their lines went haywire.
"He's crashing, his pulse is going through the roof, and blood pressure's going up"
"Look at his urine output" a nurse said as she pointed to a plastic container connected to Cody's bladder through a tube, his urine was red, almost like watery blood.
"He's in renal failure, connect the dialysis again, get some blood into him, he's crashing, call a code!" everything was a blur as Zack was pulled back out of the room in a horrible moment. The door of Cody's room was closed and only some muffled sounds could be heard through it, but other than that Zack had no idea what was going on.
"Zack, what's going on?" Carey and Kurt had just arrived back from lunch and were understandably very concerned with what was now going on.
"I don't know, we were talking and then it just went crazy, Cody was screaming mom" Zack was white as a ghost and shaking
"Sit down Zack" Kurt said as Carey just stared into space. The three of them were just studded and all they could do was hope that Cody would get through, all the doctors and nurses were inside the room and they were all kept in the dark about just what was happening with Cody, they just wanted him to be alright.
Some nice drama to move us along, I haven't had much time to write lately so that's what's been keeping me from writing, but I have some good stuff planned. From medical drama, to legal drama to some good old fashioned emotional drama! I'm hoping you'll all enjoy it.
